I feel similar. I need to generate the data dynamically because it 
depends on the user. Ex: I don't know how many entries my tree will 
have, or how many pages my stackContainer needs.

I'm not sure I agree with this one though. After a while you'd end up 
with huge pages with a very long stream of comments most of which are 
inapplicable to the current page.

Oh, that wasn't possible before? I'm glad they changed that.

dijit.Tree? That is very interesting. I admit that the data store threw 
me off, but that was a momentary issue and after that it was ok.

Cheers,
